It looks like possibly your feelings about IW and mine overlap? I don't want to presume, because my attitude toward the MCU is basically to strip it back to TWS and take BP and a few details from the other movies that have come out since TWS and leave the rest, which is an approach to canon that might be a bit extreme, but I feel like this vid gets not only Steve's canonical weariness and...I won't say bleakness, because I'm not sure Steve knows how to feel the kind of bleak defeat I personally feel about what Marvel has done with the franchise, but certainly I think even Steve has gotten ground down by the shit hand fate keeps dealing him, and keeps dealing him, and keeps dealing him. And I love how the vid shows how he, and we, can be reeled back in, because he can't give up on life and love and connections, and I personally, as much as I keep making the decision to not accept vast swathes of new source as my personal canon, keep going to partake of new source because I love these characters and I'm invested in their stories. And that's what makes the defeats and losses so devastating, and they build up over time.
As always, I love your choice of music, and your editing is amazing. Your choice of clips always feels so natural and perfect, though I can just imagine how much work goes on to get them that way. Really, a gorgeous, incisive, heartbreaking vid. It punched me in the feels, but in a way that makes me feel less alone with the post-IW snarl in my head and gut.
